We're SSV Limited.01

We’re SSV Limited. And we get people brewing. We bring big shiny tanks from halfway across the globe. It’s a real job of work.

But like most things, it started off small. Just one man. Sam, and his tanks. Sam, with a career in and around brewing under his belt, who knew how to find the best. So
he packed his case and went to see his friends at Lehui in Ningbo, China.

It’s the small things that make the difference. Small things like having your head screwed on. An eye for detail. Telling people what’s what. Small things like knowing the right people, people you trust and respect. People with experience and integrity.

A team of talents.02

Then Sam became Sam and Tim. And Arthur. Then David and Adam, until we had a whole team full of passionate people. The brightest brewers joined us too, like Venkatesh and James from Leeds Brewery and Cloudwater respectively. And we got loads of you brewing. We helped big breweries and small ones. Huge vessels with clever automation. And smaller ones, ready for crafty creativity.

We put our heads together and came up with some pretty big ideas, too. A turnkey Brew Bloc concept with up to five tanks ready to go. And a dry hopping solution, The Hopinator.

We get people brewing.03

It turns out we’ve got something pretty special. Products and people that make brewing better. We’re a company to trust, and plenty of you have asked us to help. Brewing stalwarts like Brains and Freedom, or craft beer pioneers like Northern Monk or Wiper and True. Big players like Heineken too.

Sam and his tanks is now SSV Limited, supplying end-to-end solutions. From design and project management to supply and installation. Big or small. Established or brand new. Complex or simple. The best people and the best products. That’s about the size of it.

We bring you the best.

Our tanks are made by Lehui, China’s second largest brewery manufacturer with nearly 30 years experience trading. We’re the sole UK distributor for their craft brewing equipment, and this close relationship is at the heart of our mission to get people brewing.

Lehui equipment is trusted by global brands, like Heineken and InBev, and it’s trusted by SSV Limited too. We could make the tanks in our garage at home, but they wouldn’t quite meet the same exacting standards.

We trust their work, because we’re regulars at their plant in Ningbo, eastern China. We’ve seen the processes and procedures, met the engineers and project managers, and sipped a beer or two with the Lehui team.

Everything is fully certified to UK and EU standards, of course. The tanks are made from SS304 or SS316 Grade stainless steel, sourced from a single connected steel mill. All traceable, trackable and transparent.

But you’re not buying from China. You’re buying from SSV Limited, and we’re registered and incorporated in the UK. We pay all our taxes in the UK too. It’s us you deal with. On the phone, and in the brewhouse. It’ll be our UK team installing, commissioning and optimising. It might even be us sat next to you on the plane to China to see your tanks made. And it’ll be us afterwards, too, giving you peace of mind with after-sales support.
